pretty much our routine consisted of beach, water slides and pools, snorkeling, aquariums, more beach.
whitney had this look on her face the ENTIRE time. put this girl in water and she knows no greater happiness. put her in water for seven straight days and...well, you get the picture.
this resort was amazing. it had miles of water slides and rivers, three gorgeous beaches, 12 pools, humongous aquariums, reefs for snorkeling. it was perfect for parking your butt for a week and keeping everyone happy. kind of a lazy way to vacation, i'll admit.
and this is the look wade had on his face the ENTIRE time.
aren't these fish disgusting?!
every tiny speck of shell was of magnificent importance.
wade almost peed his pants every time we saw this yacht. he almost went so far as to knock on the door and beg for a look around. and when he saw people coming off the yacht he made us all wait and watch to see what kind of people they were. he was sure they'd be movie stars or something.
one of our favorite things was the snorkeling. we took the kids on an open ocean snorkeling trip. whitney got her finger devoured by a rabid fish the second she jumped in. but she got over it quickly.
max and nik had to drive the boat, of course.
then we all swam with the sharks. not whitney. she was a bit too morsel sized for that.
more pictures of that later.
we got caught in a terrific rain storm on the way to a pirate museum and then found ourselves almost frozen to the bone once we entered the over air-conditioned building.
a little pirate jig.
then we all got sent to pirate time-out.
would you like some chips with that sand?
every night we'd walk to the little village, eat, shop around and enjoy the live music. wade REALLY got into it.
this is how we survived the LONG LONG trip home: movies, naps and about two million games of uno.
good thing we left devan at home or i don't think we would have ever come back.
the major success of the trip: no one got burnt. after two bottles of 50 and a bottle of 30 i think we were covered.
